1960 Benfica v Hearts European Cup Prelim Round

[1980Cossie]

Hello,
I'm looking for a valuation for Benfica v Hearts 5 October 1960, i have the September & October edition of the ''Benfica Ilustrado'' which i have been told is the nearest there is to a programme for the match in Portugal with both issues previewing the match against Hearts.
many thanks,

It's a difficult one as I'm sure you're aware. Il Calcio, Hurra, and various Revistas having performed similar roles in the past in Italy and Spain. Don't normally associate such magazines with Portugal - perhaps because they don't have the mass circulation as their neighbours - and am sure that it would make a cracking addition to any Hearts fans' collection.
Would imagine they would be worth three figures, but putting a definitive figure on it would be difficult. There are some excellent Hearts fans forums and historical societies that might be able to give you a better idea.

Thanks i will go on to one of the forums and ask on there, i was looking at a Hearts site last night with programme covers from 1000's of their post war matches but didn't notice anything on there from the benfica match away,

One of these mags cropped up on ebay last year, and from memory it didnt go for anything spectacular, less than 3 figures.
